I don't understand what all the brouhaha is over this freakin' balloon? To me - it's a lot of uproar over absolutely nothing.

If it's actually spying who gives a rat's ass.
If it's gathering information so what? It's not like it's gathering any information they don't already get from their spy satellites & I seriously doubt it actually is. If you're going to send something over another country to spy you don't send a huge, white, slow moving balloon that can be seen with the naked eye.
:rolleyes:

I believe the Chinese that it's a weather balloon that went off course.

So let's expend a million dollar's worth of ordinence to shoot it down.
:rolleyes:

The Chinese have to be laughing their collective asses off...................................

They violated our sovereign air space! Let me repeat, OUR Freekin AirSpace. In Violation of International Law! That alone is the main issue. Whether accidental (doubt it) or not.


This isnt some satellite 200 miles up in space. This this is 120 feet wide and has surveillance equipment at the bottom 80 feet wide for reconnaissance that is being directed at 35K - 60K feet. And our pussy administration let them right the heck in. Had them tracked since at least off the coast of Alaska. through Canada (another useless government) down Montana over 5 US bases, midwest now East Coast.

If that doesn't explain it for you, nothing will. Then again, you're probably totally cool with $100Billion in aide to Ukraine that gets money laundered back to US politicians.
 
Spy satellites orbit about 100 miles above the surface and are travelling very fast to stay in low altitude orbit. This thing is less than 12 miles up and is traveling very slow. That's a big difference in picture resolution and the ability to collect radio frequency data. They are listening as well as looking.

And, if their technology is like ours allegedly is, most likely getting 3D images better than Google street view!

Why exactly would they be studying the weather in Montana anyway? And yes, the Chinese are laughing their asses off at us.
 
It's amazing, people think Russia is the threat. The real threat is China.
Corrupted every corner of our government, kick backs to the highest level government officials, and academia.... shipping 15K lbs of Fentanyl across our southern border, stealing our tech for years, building tick tock apps that are poisoning our youth, buying up land in our country 50 miles away from key military bases (yeah look it up)...

The stupidity of our supposed intelligent people in our population not seeing the obvious is astounding.
 
I do hope the delay in bringing this thing down is trying to figure out how to bring it down with the maximum recovery of the parts for intel, and not just the BS answers they've been providing...
buying up land in our country 50 miles away from key military bases (yeah look it up)...
Think I posted this in Headline thread, but yes, the local town figured that one out is now dead set against it and will fight the sale...

REPORTER: “Does the public not have the right to know...?”





PENTAGON: “The public certainly has the ability to look up in the sky and see where the balloon is.”

Doesn’t matter to these guys either.

Pentagon: Biden gave sign-off on Wednesday “to take down the surveillance balloon as soon as the mission could be accomplished without undue risk to American lives under the balloon’s path.”

I WONDER IF IT HAS A MADE IN CHINA LABEL?
